"Two Thousand and Seventeen is among the most beautiful tracks I've come across this decade, the rest may be a mere continuation of what Four Tet has already done so well but it's still a wonderful listen regardless. Can do no wrong at this point even if he's hit his ceiling."  Reply

"This album will probably go down as 2017's most overlooked album. This album is superb. This album digs so much deeper than what you would originally think, given the subject matter. It's funny, original and will be nostalgic for some. Will definitely be in my top three albums of the year. LISTEN..."  [+]  Reply

"Nice sound. Pond definitely has a unique, psychedelic sound. The stand outs here for me are, Paint Me Silver and Zen Automation. Some songs could be more memorable but I like how the album flows and it's never dull."  Reply

"10 years after "The Narcotic Story", Oxbow has not aged, even though the guys are fifty years old. Oxbow has all it takes for his career to be a shocking sound experience: to keep his music safe from the blues, nothing is heavier than rock, but especially for vocal experiments of Eugene S. Robins..."  [+]  Reply

"Certainly, the first half of the record is considerably stronger than the second, but it is a very pretty and elegant experimental album by Ryuichi Sakamoto that's definitely worth a shot."  Reply
